AI & Machine Learningmacos

Key Points

  • Run AI agents locally with privacy, low latency, and offline access.
  • Covers how MLX advancements and Mac hardware make powerful agentic workflows possible entirely on-device.
  • Covers local coding agents, Xcode integration, multi-Mac scaling, and tool integration with MLX.
  • The session moves through The chat and agentic loop, Local agentic AI stack, Setting up their own agent, Making agents fast, Concurrency and distributed inference, More examples.
  • Key concepts include MLX, OpenCode, GitHub, HuggingFace, OpenAI, HTTP, Metal, DeepSeek.
  • Platform coverage: macos.
